Maybe because of this?

If I ever get a time machine, I'm fucking going to that wedding.
I'm going to guess a yoga-inspired toe-sock comeback.
I don't really get the sense that it's about the daughter being completely unable to engage in a consensual sexual relationship. It's more about heartbreak and wanting to protect your kids from growing up. I think the poem leaves open a possibility that there will be, someday, a partner (of either sex) that deserves…
That sounds like a sitcom waiting to happen.
Did you hear about the new CEO of GM? It was kind of a big deal. There are incredible women all over the news these days. Maybe you're new here. Dirt Bag is a gossip column. Quibbling between millionaire pop stars is kind of the point.
Listen, I feel you. I get it. But these commenters seem to be running a pretty typical MRA game. The idea is that any difference of opinion or nuance in logic will somehow cause Jezebel to collapse in on itself. It's a milder form of the kind of MRA white-knighting bullshit that uses the concept of "agency" to excuse…
That's great. I was so caught off guard that I didn't think through any of that. I like the second option a lot- I think it would've gotten through the cloud of booze more easily than grown-up words.
A bill over *gasp* $50??? Mitt Romney, is that you??
I'm not rich but I have been guilty on several occasions of racking up large-ish bills with a certain favorite dining companion of mine. We eat late, too, which is weird in our early-to-bed city, so we're usually there up right until closing if not a minute or two…
Even if it was a "diet thing", we're at the point where being vegetarian is not weird hippie shit but a totally sane, healthful and environmentally conscious set of choices about what you put in your body. I'm lucky that I live in a decently sized urban center (relative to surrounding towns and states) that's seen a…
I'm posting a somewhat-but-not-entirely related question to the Jezebel hivemind I'm curious to know what people think.
Two Sundays ago, I was doing my hopping Sunday brunch dance at the quirky little vegan diner where I work. We were on a wait, but a table of 11 showed up— half of whom stank to high heaven like booze.…
I really don't understand why people don't think they have to tip on drinks. I know I'm in a special situation, but my restaurant doesn't have hostesses, bussers or bartenders. I make every fucking drink myself. Not tipping on taxes makes slightly more sense, but it seems sort of petty. Who wants to do that much math…
UGH I know. I work weekend brunches. SOMEONE MUST FEEL MY PAIN.
Seconded. I actually work at a place without managers (it's as crazy as it sounds), but if someone called me a cunt I would throw them out immediately, secure in the knowledge that everyone on staff had my back as I did so.
Hell, I'd probably do the same thing if they called me (or one of my coworkers) fat or useless.…
Seconding Everything is Shiny- I've worked in a lot of different restaurants in the U.S. and Canada for almost a decade and never witnessed any food fuckery. As I've said elsewhere: Even if I don't respect the patron, I respect my chefs. They work to make my job easier and enable me to earn the tips that make up my…
I've worked a lot of places and never fucked with anyone's food, nor ever directly witnessed any food fucked with. I might be in the minority, though.
Yeah, I don't fuck with people's food. That's gross. Also, my chefs work hard to make that food delicious and appealing. Even if I don't always respect my guests, I fucking respect my chefs and their efforts.
